Well, as to what has been going in my life. It's been sorta busy. Mainly cause I got a job in November and was super busy. It wasn't really the best job, just a way to get christmas money. And then school got super intense and I had a lot of homework and projects and wow.... that month just went by super fast.
So, after Halloween, I did a lot of school and work and earning money and doing projects. Summary of my life right there. I quit my job last weekish, so that I could have no late nights during finals. As far as I know my finals went good. My physics could have gone better, but I got an A in the class, so that's all that matters. I haven't gotten my grade for my History final yet, but that's all good.
Highlight of my whole finals/projects was my Harry Potter essay. Many of you have heard of this essay. Over this semester in my English 2010 class we had this whole write-a-huge-essay-and-work-on-it-through-the-whole-semester sort of thing. So I chose to write my essay on The Positive Effects of Harry Potter in the Classroom. Yes, pretty much my essay was about how great Harry Potter is. I worked pretty hard on this essay, and I am really proud on how it turned out. The best part about it is that USU does this competition called the Voices competition for Essays in the English classes. And so I randomly submitted my essay into that and won $50 and I think it's getting published. I don't know yet. But hey, $50 for working on my homework. I like it. :D So here is a picture of Harry Potter for you guys, cause I need pictures in my blog and all that.
All right on going with my life. So, I finished all my projects and finals and am now on Christmas break, which is really nice. I am liking it. I am super excited for this christmas. Since I got a job and earned enough money to get nicer things for my family. So I spent more than I ever have on family gifts for christmas. Like, my brothers get nice things this year from me instead of cheap $5 things. So I am super excited for them to get their gifts. I got to see my friends, I get to spend time not only with my mom but I also get to go to CO and visit my dad. So things are good.
Also, fun fact. I believe Dec 31 my little brother Chris is getting baptised as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Which is really cool. He's autistic and 14 so... it's cool that he gets to. He's super excited. I love him. He's a sweetheart. I got to sit in on a missionary discussion with him and he just was really good. A little goofy, but he did well. He loves the missionaries and I'm sure the missionaries are liking the experience to work with him. They both seem excited. So, here is a picture of me and Chris for your enjoyment. This was taken this past summer. Alas, I am too lazy to upload my more recent ones.
So, Finals, Christmas Break, Chris's Baptism.... I think that's what's happening. Yes. Most recently I got to spend a day out with my mom. Which was amazing. We needed it. We went christmas shopping for everyone and just talked and goofed around. I also have spent a lot of time hanging out with Wes just goofing around and watching shows and having fun. So things have been good.
Also, just because I do this, I have to update you on how much of a nerd I am. I found this amazing band called Chameleon Circuit. I love them a lot. They are a band based in the UK that sing their own songs based off of Doctor Who. Yes... But I love them. Also, a boy named Alex Day. He's a part of Chameleon Circuit, but also does his own stuff. So, I've been listening to them a lot. I think I'm gonna need to buy their cds... but that might have to wait a month or so cause I spent a lot of money for Christmas, so I'm going to just cool off on the money buying til after textbooks and other school fees are done. But, anyway... I like them. If you are interested in jumping on my nerd bandwagon, you can find their stuff on youtube. :)
Yes, that is my life. You haven't missed much. And you'll hear from me soon cause I have this goal of posting a review of 2011 for a New Years post. So.... yeah. We'll see if I remember that. And if I do it.Until then farewell. Thanks if you did read this and are now here at the bottom of the page. Good job. :)
